According to a report by Reuters, on Thursday, US President Donald Trump said that he was likely to declare a national emergency to secure funds for a Mexico/U.S. border wall if a deal cannot be reached with Congress to provide funding.
On the 20th day of a partial government shutdown, Trump spoke to reporters at the White House before departing to visit the border in Texas.
Reuters reports that the president repeated his contention that he had the right to declare a national emergency over the ongoing immigration crisis at the United States' southern border.
